Club Notes 23rd November 2015

After Ogra on Saturday we have a surprise for all the girls and boys.....Santa is arriving...

Well done to our U16 footballers who played Clontarf in the league final. This is a team to watch.

Hannah
Browne and Grace Harkin represented Dublin in U15 ladies footballers v
KiIdare on Sunday and the girls did the club proud with excellent
displays throughout the day.

Hard luck to our U13 boys who lost out for 2nd place in div 3.

Our minor camogie got a walk over from St Finians and are now through to the county finals.

Magic
Mike and his men had a great win over O'Tooles on a very cold Sunday
afternoon. Thanks to all who supported the lads. The lads are playing in
the "Top 4 Final" on Sunday at home. Best of luck lads and please
support well.

Our
U14 girls (a squad of 44) traveled to Carlingford for an adventure
weekend. Thank you to the mentors who traveled up with them, Ger
McGloin, Kevin Ahearne, Emer McCarthy and Micheal McGlinchy and a big
thank you to the parents (Linda Hogan and Fiona O Donovan) who gave up
their weekend to help with supervising the girls. A great weekend was
had and the Raheny Girls did the club proud as always.

Brian
Fenton (pride of the parish) helped with switching the tree lights on
last Sunday and also stood for a number of selfies with his fans, a real
gentleman.

AGM is to be held on 1st December, only fully paid members may attend.

On
Sunday next 29/11 from 12-6 we have our first ever Christmas Craft

Apologies this was omitted from previous club notes....
"With the bad weather we had many games called off on Saturday 14th November but every cloud has a silver lining!Philip
Kerr from O'Donovan Rossa Magherafelt in Derry visited Raheny GAA to
bring us through his Player Performance Coaching Workshop.

It was a few hours well spent and gave the 21 participants plenty to chew on in the months ahead.

Huge thanks to Philip for making the long journey we will keep in touch.
